• Zooming User Interface (ZUI)

  You probably know this, but in Google Maps at least, you can use browser zoom (ctrl/cmd +/-) to change the size of labels without zooming into the actual map. ------ Speaking of maps, I got to work a fun zoom project a few years ago: https://map.fieldmuseum.org/ We used https://openlayers.org/ and thought long and hard about how to best handle zooming and variable levels of information density & visual hierarchy.... - Source: Hacker News / 2 months ago

• Handling files in enterprise web solutions

  In order to display the GeoJSON features on a map, we will use OpenLayers, which is a very powerful open-source mapping library that is also very simple to use. - Source: dev.to / 4 months ago

• 5 JavaScript mapping APIs compared

  OpenLayers is a modular, high-performance library designed for displaying and interacting with maps and geospatial data.

• I'm a senior in my CS major and it's incredible I didn't hear about GIS projects until now. Glad to be here.

  For web maps I'd strongly recommend using OpenLayers. While it's less convenient to get started with compared to the alternatives it's also much more feature-complete and you'll likely hit a ceiling in terms of functionality much later than you would with the others. Source: about 1 year ago

• Curious about fractional hiring. Have you done it? Why/why not?

  Curious to get this groups thoughts on fractional hiring. I’ve seen companies like Shiny or Pilot pilot that offer fractional c-suite folks, and I’m curious if anyone here has considered using any of these services - or what stopped you from pursuing a fractional hire? Source: about 1 year ago

• Do you believe billionaires are inherently bad, why or why not?

  They should use it to create even more net positives for society (Like the founders of Pilot did, see here). Most of them at the moment find that helping other 'potential future billionaires' is a pretty good way of doing this (This is what a VC fund is generally, or Angel investors, very different dynamics to zero-sum investors).
